Next Game & AGM Gordonvale 24 Nov

All,

Our next game is a 4BBB stableford at Gordonvale with a shotgun start at 8.30am.

It is preceeded by our AGM at 8.00am, so please ensure you are registered before then, as you will not have a chance after.

After the game we have our normal presentations as well as presentation of annual trophies.  We would appreciate it if trophy winners were able to stay to collect their trophy as otherwise we have to cart them around with us, so if we forget to bring them to the final game you will have to wait till next year!

Gordonvale is currently starting to scarify its greens & there will be several temporary ones in play.  Rough in drains has been mowed, but straw lying in them can pose a problem & trees are shedding leaves in copious quantities, so you don't want to be off the fairway.

See you there.

President's Report & Results Half Moon Bay 17 Nov

Today we played a stableford event at a rather rain swept Half Moon Bay and quite a number of players did not complete the full 18 holes. A rather disappointing field of 78 men and 16 ladies teed off in fine weather but soon the skies opened up and drenched us all. Perhaps those who stayed in bed knew more than the rest of us.

The sponsor for the day was BROTHERS WORLD OF ENTERTAINMENT AND FULLERS SPORTS and we sincerely thank them for their support.

I would like to remind our members that next Tuesday is our Annual General Meeting scheduled to start at 8.00AM at Gordonvale Golf Club so please be registered for your game in time for the meeting as there will be a shotgun start at around 8.30 AM. The event is a 4 ball best ball and at the conclusion we are presenting trophies to our champions and winners of our honour board events.
